After everyone had left, Qin Di stayed in the bamboo house to continue his cultivation.
He had completed the sixth Girdle Meridian of the Eight Divine Meridian. The reason why he had completed it so quickly was because when he used the Sky Devourer Art to devour the Spirit Veins in the Five Mysteries, a large amount of Spiritual Qi had accumulated in his meridians. Thus, he had unknowingly opened up all the acupoints in the Girdle Meridian.
Now, he had completed the tenth stage of Qi Refinement. His body could become tall and short, fat and thin, and he could change the shape of his body at will. However, his face remained the same. He could not completely change his appearance. If he wanted to completely change into another person, he would have to wait until he reached the Foundation Establishment stage. Especially with the Green Dragon Art, he would reach the level of the Divine Dragon Hundred Changes. Then, he would not have to worry about being recognized.
Next, he would have to cultivate the seventh stage of the Eight Divine Meridian, which was the "Child Meridian". The Child Meridian was not a meridian, but a branch of twelve meridians and fifteen collateral meridians. It did not have a fixed acupoint, but it required a large amount of Spiritual Qi to fill all the minor meridians and collateral meridians.
Therefore, in general, this was a process of absorbing spiritual energy. No matter how fast or slow the absorption was, one day, when enough spiritual energy had been accumulated and filled all the meridians and meridians, one would be able to add another 27 muscles on top of the 639 muscles in one's body. At the same time, one would be able to form three more bones, greatly increasing the strength and toughness of one's body.
After asking his master, Lan Xingshang, and coming back to study for a long time, Qin Di finally understood the specific process of cultivation. He could not help but think of the few Spirit Veins in the Five Mysteries. If he used the Sky Devourer Art and took a few breaths of the Spirit Veins, his cultivation would greatly increase.
Unfortunately, the Five Mysteries had been sealed, and he could not go in.
"Little Peach Pit, come out! You swallowed my Spiritual Qi, spit it out! "
"Hehe, dream on! If you want Spiritual Qi, go overseas and find new Spirit Veins! "
Overseas? Qin Di felt that his cultivation was still too weak, and he would face great risks if he went out. But what if he did not go? How could he cultivate quickly? Currently, the two small Wood Spirit Veins and one small Earth Spirit Vein could only maintain the spirit field at Level Nine. If he used the Heaven Devouring Art, it would definitely cause the spirit field to degrade, and he was not willing to do that.
As for the remaining four Spirit Gathering Pearls that contained the mid-sized Wood Spirit Veins and the 11 small-sized Earth Spirit Veins, he was still a little hesitant about burying them in the ground. This was a rare treasure. He would take it out from time to time and enjoy it. He didn't want to bury it in the ground and lose sight of it.
Of course, it wouldn't do to absorb Spirit Qi without burying it in the ground. That was because the Spirit Gathering Pearl alone had a limited amount of Spirit Qi. It had to be buried in the ground and converted into a Spirit Vein. Only then would it be able to absorb enough Spirit Qi.
Another night passed amidst his hesitation.
In the early morning of the next day, Qin Di rushed to the Celestial Fire Valley and asked to see the supervisor of the Alchemy Room. He wanted to be an alchemy apprentice.
The person in charge of managing the alchemy apprentices was a cultivator at the Great Consummation of Qi Refining. His name was "Cao Yankai". He was no longer in the Yun generation. He looked very old and did not wear a green disciple uniform. Obviously, he was no longer a disciple in the training sequence.
According to the rules of the Jindan Sect, if one reached the Great Consummation of Qi Refining and could not reach the Zhuji phase in two sixty-year cycles, he would have to quit as an inner disciple and help the sect manage the industry in various places.
Cao Yankai should be this kind of person. He looked old, and his age was more than two sixty-year cycles. Those at the Great Consummation of Qi Refining could live for 250 years, so he still had a long life.
Looking at Qin Di's identity card, Cao Yankai first sighed slightly, and then praised, "So young, less than twenty years old, and you have become an inner disciple. You are really young and promising! "
Qin Di was afraid that the other party would nag, so he quickly bowed and reminded, "Sir, how can I become an alchemy apprentice?"
Cao Yankai handed him a page of book list and said, "There is a small cyan building on the left of the Alchemy Room. There are some books on alchemy there. You can borrow these books. When you have memorized the contents, come to me to apply for the assessment. Only by passing the assessment can you become an alchemy apprentice. "
Qin Di glanced at the book list and found that there were at least a hundred books. So he bowed again and turned away.
When he came to the small cyan building, he went in and found that it was a small library. There were only a dozen bookshelves in total, and all the books added up would not exceed three thousand volumes.
The book keeper was a young disciple with broom-like eyebrows and slender eyes. He was dressed in a cyan robe, and the name "Yang Yunzhao" was written on the nameplate on his chest. Seeing Qin Di come in, he did not pay attention to him, but just frowned and lowered his head to read.
Qin Di took out the book list and said, "Sorry for troubling Senior Martial Brother, I want to read these books."
The young disciple, Yang Yunzhao, glanced at him and said with an expressionless face, "One spirit stone per book. You can take as many books as you have. Without spirit stones, just taking the book list is useless!" What he meant was, "You don't have many spirit stones, so why are you still pretending?"
Qin Di thought, "This kid's attitude is not good. Since I came to Jindan Sect, this is the first time I've seen this kind of person. "He said," Senior Martial Brother, please take these books, I have spirit stones here. "
Yang Yunzhao still put on a deadpan face, "Pay the spirit stones first, then read the books."
Qin Di was too lazy to argue with him, so he took out three thousand low-grade spirit stones and poured them on the table. He said in a deep voice, "Read three thousand books first!"
Yang Yunzhao was shocked by the rattling spirit stones, and he immediately sat up straight. He looked at the spirit stones, and then looked at Qin Di. His lips trembled, and he said, "We have a total of two thousand eight hundred ancient books here."
"Then read two thousand eight hundred books, I want to read them now." Qin Di said and took back the two hundred spirit stones.
Yang Yunzhao clumsily counted the Spirit Stones one by one. After a while, he placed them in a large metal box. Then, he quietly moved a stack of books over. There were at least a hundred of them. He said softly, "Junior Brother, please read them first. After you are done, I will get new ones."
Qin Di took the books, sat on the chair next to him, and flipped through the ancient books one by one. Because they were for low level disciples to read, they were all paper books, and not stored in jade slips.
Some of these books were thick, and some were thin. For example, the books about herbs and spiritual materials, there were more than a dozen thick books, and each book was five inches thick, one foot wide, and two feet long. Such books would take half a month to read at a normal speed. For example, some books about alchemy techniques, there were only a dozen thin pages, and they could be finished in one glance.
Qin Di's speed of flipping through the books was very fast. Although it wasn't as exaggerated as slapping his forehead to finish reading a book, it was still more than enough to read a page with one glance.
Generally, he could finish reading a small book in two or three breaths. As for those thick books, it took him a lot of time.
He stayed in the library without moving, regardless of day or night, and didn't eat or drink. After reading for two whole days, he finally remembered all the books in his mind.
During this time, Yang Yunzhao didn't drive him away, and at night, he took out a bright luminous stone to help him light up the room.
Before leaving, Qin Di saw that Yang Yunzhao's attitude was not bad, so he didn't take it too far, and forgot his disrespectful behavior at the beginning. He took out a handful of spirit stones and gave them to Yang Yunzhao, "Thank you for your care, Senior Martial Brother Yang. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to finish reading these books."
